GIANNI Zuiverloon said that the lure of playing 'total' football under Tony Mowbray in the Premier League was too good to turn down.

The Dutch under-21 right-back sealed a £3.2million move to Albion and spoke of his "dream move" to the Baggies.

"I looked at the style of play that Albion use before making my decision to come here because I didn't want to play for a team that just uses the

long ball", he said.

"West Brom like to play football, which suits me and Tony Mowbray is a good trainer.

"He knows what he wants and he is a very honest man.

"I'm looking forward to my time here.

"It's my dream to play against the big names in the Premier League."

The Rotterdam-born defender will have to battle it out with Carl Hoefkens for the number two shirt- although he will miss the opening game of the season at arsenal after being called up for the Olympics.

He added: "I feel I am a good defender and I also get forward to get crosses in.

"I'm very excited to begin and show everyone who I am.

"Competition for places is always good and it can only help me get better.

"I'm looking forward to the challenge."

"It's a nice club, I want to play in the Premier League and they've given me a chance.
